Summary
The documentation provides detailed instructions for Azure Portal and PowerShell, but omits examples for Azure CLI, Bash, or Linux/macOS shell environments. All command-line instructions use PowerShell cmdlets and reference Windows tools (e.g., Notepad), with no mention of cross-platform alternatives. This creates friction for Linux/macOS users who may prefer or require Azure CLI or Bash scripting.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent Azure CLI examples for all PowerShell steps, including exporting, editing, and deploying ARM templates.
  • Replace references to Windows-only tools like Notepad with cross-platform editors (e.g., VS Code, nano, vim), or use generic language such as 'open in a text editor of your choice'.
  • Explicitly state that PowerShell Core is available cross-platform, but also provide CLI/Bash alternatives for Linux/macOS users.
  • Reorder or parallelize examples so that CLI/Bash instructions are presented alongside PowerShell, not only after or below them.
